Yes, I also can't wait for the conflicts with RP-0 to be fixed so I can install RVE again... Earth without clouds looks so dull, I don't even want to play :) Once all is done and working between RVE, EVE and Scatterer, things should be the most gorgeous experience to be had in KSP.

Now I need to find my time machine to shorten the wait.

The not so finished city-night texture. Honestly the hardest part to modding RVE is the damn cities, finding a balance between what looks acceptable from 1 but also 130km without repetition and without an 8k texture D:

You can see the pixelation issue and the repetition here:

EDIT: How do you guys feel about this much repetition? Is that acceptable or should I keep experimenting?

It's definitely acceptable in my eyes, if you want to disguise the repetition more then you could add additional cross streets. The really big street going diagonal and the one branch off of it These:

Are on the repetetive side but the only really way I would fix it is by adding additional streets to make those less present... but the texture is already very busy... GUR! xD If only there was a way to tile the texture and rotate it at a random 90 degree angle... that's how I would break the repetition.

This reminds me a ton of when I edited textures in Minecraft while attempting to keep them well tile-able.

...

In all honesty though It's probably fine. Big cities have repetition like that in them.

Yes, but my result is not like you.

I would say, from the very, very begining, when I just dowloaded KSP, what can I do ? Download in first Real Solar System ? EVE ? Realism Overhaul ?

It does not matter in what order you install them. You do not need to install EVE at all.

The pixelation will show in very large urban areas like Los Angeles but it might not be so bad. Need to try it out. Small cities like what you show here looks okay since they are not a very large continuous block. I had this issue with the terrain image repeat over a large area as well in my mod. If you look in the Overhaul archive I suggested also a four texture 90 degree rotated texture that is randomly placed. Perhaps if you also tell rbray this idea he might consider it.
